Contextual Overview

12 Then I spoke to Tzidkiyahu king of Y'hudah in just the same way: "Put your necks under the yoke of the king of Bavel, serve him and his people, and you will live. 13 Why would you want to die, you and your people, by sword, famine and plague — which is what Adonai has decreed for the nation that will not serve the king of Bavel? 14 Don't listen to the words of the prophets who say to you, ‘You will not serve the king of Bavel'; because they are prophesying lies to you. 15 ‘For I have not sent them,' says Adonai , ‘and they are prophesying falsely in my name, with the result that I will drive you out, and you will perish — you and the prophets prophesying to you.'" 16 I also spoke to the cohanim and to all this people; I said, "This is what Adonai says: ‘Don't listen to the words of the prophets prophesying to you that the articles from Adonai 's house will soon be returned from Bavel; because they are prophesying lies to you. 17 Don't listen to them. Serve the king of Bavel, and stay alive; why should this city become a ruin?' 18 But if they are in fact prophets, and if the word of Adonai is with them, then let them now intercede with Adonai -Tzva'ot that the articles still remaining in the house of Adonai and in the palace of the king of Y'hudah will not go off to Bavel. 19 For this is what Adonai -Tzva'ot says concerning the columns, the Sea, the bases and the rest of the articles still here in this city, 20 that N'vukhadnetzar, king of Bavel did not seize when he carried off captive Y'khanyahu the son of Y'hoyakim, king of Y'hudah, from Yerushalayim to Bavel, along with all the leading men of Y'hudah and Yerushalayim — 21 yes, this is what Adonai Shaddai, the God of Isra'el, says about the things remaining in the house of Adonai , in the palace of the king of Y'hudah and in Yerushalayim:

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For thus saith the Lord of hosts concerning the pillars,.... The pillars of brass that stood in the temple; the one called Boaz, and the other Jachin, 1 Kings 7:15;

and concerning the sea; the sea of molten brass, which stood upon twelve oxen, 1 Kings 7:23;

and concerning the bases: the ten bases, which also were made of brass, 1 Kings 7:27;

and concerning the residue of the vessels that remain in this city; in the king's palace, and in the houses of the noblemen, and of the rich and wealthy inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Jeremiah 27:19. Concerning the pillars — Two brazen columns placed by Solomon in the pronaos or portico of the temple, eighteen cubits high, and twelve in circumference, 1 Kings 7:16-22; Jeremiah 52:11.

The sea — The brazen sea, ten cubits in diameter, and thirty in circumference. It contained water for different washings in the Divine worship, and was supported on twelve brazen oxen. Perhaps these are what are called the bases here. See the parallel places in the margin, and the notes on them (2 Kings 25:13; Jeremiah 52:17; Jeremiah 52:20-21).
